At its Feb. 3 meeting, the town board unanimously authorized issuing requests for proposals for the new scale and also allowed the use of the transfer station’s capital reserve funds to pay for it.
Altamont was awarded $1.1 million in funding to help improve its wastewater treatment plant on Gun Club Road, while Voorheesville received $300,000 to help pay for sewer upgrades in the Salem Hills neighborhood. The funds were secured by Congressman Paul Tonko.
